I’ve always dreamt of having the confidence to sit down, draw, and understand the process of art. Linda and her studio has made this dream come true. She is the first instructor, I’ve encountered, who explains her method in a way I can completely get it. Her studio is a place of relaxed camaraderie and group encouragement from fellow art students. I absolutely love it! I look forward to honing my skills and having fun while doing it.Roberta K., Hollywood
